Ancho Chili Lime Shrimp Bowls

Chili lime shrimp bowls are an 30 minutes dinner recipe! Shrimp are coated with ancho chili sauce, cooked until they’re tender and juicy, and piled on rice with tomatoes and avocado.
Chili lime shrimp is an easy dinner, and my version amps the flavor with ancho chili crunch. The shrimp cook in it, so they have tons of flavor, and I like to drizzle a little more of that ancho concoction over the top for serving. You get a kick of ancho chili heat, a little crunchy texture, and zingy lime in every bite. It’s so good.
It’s a quick dinner – you don’t have to marinate the shrimp, and they cook fast once they’re in the pan. Pile the shrimp on rice and add a little tomato avocado salad on the side, and you will get a light and flavorful dinner perfect for weeknights.
